Opposite

Kara Marni

Compositor: Harper / Kara Marni

Always call me when you're vexed
He don’t say where he goin' out
You caught him talkin' to his ex
So you’re cryin' to me now
'Cause every other weekend when you see him
You're tellin' me the same four words repeatin'
See, this time ain't done
We both know you're gonna run right back

If I tell you to stay with him
You might do the opposite (you)
If I say what you want to hear
Maybe you’re gon’ start again (you)
Think of all the lies that he told you
All the shit that he put you through
If I tell you to run

You, you gon' do the opposite
You gon’ do the opposite
You gon' do the opposite
You gon' do the–

I think you're better on your own
But you’re too scared to find out
It can be hard to be alone
So he's still in the void now
And every time I say that you don't need him
You're tellin' me the same four words repeatin'
See, this time he's changed
I got nothin' left to say but this

If I tell you to stay with him
You might do the opposite (you)
If I say what you want to hear
Maybe you're gon' start again (you)
Think of all the lies that he told you
All the shit that he put you through
If I tell you to run

You, you gon' do the opposite
You gon' do the opposite
You gon' do the opposite
You gon' do the–
You gon' do the opposite
You gon' do the opposite
You gon' do the opposite
You gon' do the–

Say you want the truth but you don't like it (ah)
I guess it's time for you to do the right thing (yeah)
Yeah, I'm the one who knows you most
But I didn't want to get involved
You do your thing, I'ma do mine

If I tell you to stay with him
You might do the opposite (you)
If I say what you want to hear
Maybe you're gon' start again (you)
Think of all the lies that he told you
All the shit that he put you through
If I tell you to run (you to run)

You, you gon' do the opposite
You gon' do the opposite
You gon' do the opposite
You gon' do the–
You gon' do the opposite
You gon' do the opposite (you)
You gon' do the opposite (you)
You gon' do the– (ah)
